HUNTSVILLE, Alabama -- Redstone Arsenal traffic could be affected by paving work scheduled to restart Tuesday on Martin Road West and in the vicinity of the new Gate 7 location, according to officials.

While some of the work will be performed after the gate is closed, some must be done while the gate is operational. This will require periodic changes in traffic lane configurations as the roadwork progresses, according to the arsenal announcement.

The roadwork is expected to be complete by the end of July. Motorists using Gate 7 are urged to be extra cautious and abide by the posted speed limit while traveling through the area.
